I love your username btw

See, this is what people say, but now that I’ve been reading labels I don’t believe it.

For example, I cannot eat Kellogg’s Rice Krispies, but some off brands are made with a different formula that doesn’t include gluten and is manufactured in a safe environment.

Conversely, I can eat Cheerios, but not most store brands, Lucky Charms but not most store brands, etc.

And that’s just cereal! Even drugs vary wildly. Sure, the active ingredients are the same, but the other contents can really vary.

Some foods have similar ingredients, but are either manufactured on shared equipment with wheat and dairy, or not.

I now believe that most store brands are made in a unique environment. I’m open to being convinced otherwise, but if you need more examples, I can check my cupboard and tell you all kinds of things!

“Oh yeah, that’s the shit! They’re really loving me now!”

My provider claims generics can have different fillers and such. The active ingredients have to be the same, though.

If I really wanted to be sure, I’d ask a pharmacist.

They’re not. I have celiac, and I’ve learned from reading labels that they often have completely different ingredients/manufacturing conditions.

They’re not QC rejects, but they’re also not the same thing repackaged.

These are the only two

Is there a way that someone can test for this at home? It seems troubling that children had to be poisoned before any action was taken.

I left beehaw because I was being targeted by a user using gaslighting and lies.

When I responded to this user (I will admit, too strongly), the mods removed my comments, but left his initial lies and gaslighting up, even though I had reported them (and even messaged one of the admins directly – it was actually a beehaw admin’s actions against my comments.) To be clear, I understood the removal of my comments, but I did not understand why the user’s lies and rudeness against me still remained.

I mentioned tumblr because it was where the information I was sharing had initiated, and I encouraged people to take the discussion there, since a productive discussion was no longer possible here. I never said I was moving there myself.

I then removed the rest of my comments and posts on beehaw.

I was already on tumblr, so I didn’t “move from” Beehaw to there. I was also already on this account, so nor did I move here – I was already here all along, where I’ve had no similar problems.

I saw a BBC documentary about a similar situation. People are being exploited on both sides of the phone line.

Incorrect. I challenge you to scour my post and comment history for any mention of Hamas or anything that would justify you asking such a question. (I’ll save you some time – you won’t find it.)

Otherwise, we’ll just assume you’re deflecting.

I have no doubt there are official confessions obtained via coercion including threats and possible torture.

Lol gotta love these deflections and whataboutisms. I always wonder if you lot are deliberately deflecting, or if you’re just incapable of engaging in any meaningful way.

It’s true that I don’t trust the IDF here, just as I wouldn’t trust the SS in WWII. If you think that’s farfetched, then I will hope you come to your senses.

This is also true. Any way you cut it, the IDF are the villains in this story.

They can also force confessions of terrorism! Pretty bold headline that’s parroting IDF propaganda, if you ask me. Wouldn’t say this article belongs in a news community.

In the winter, tinkering with my magic decks, or becoming obsessed with a video game if one grabs me.

In the summer, riding my longboard long distances.

Someone else explained this too. It’s still mildly infuriating when you have to use it. Can’t even pull it out without it breaking before there’s enough tissue for the job because of how the dispenser is designed.

Username checks out

(Sorry, I know this is a serious issue, but my brain is fried and I couldn’t resist. To be clear, I fully agree with everything you’ve said here.)

So this was driving me nuts, so I had to look it up. I thought I dreamed it.

Apparently, this continued for centuries, and may have contributed to Beethoven’s illness and death.

I think I actually read about it in a thread here on Lemmy.

I read the article. Is this because lead has a sweet, appealing flavor? I remember reading this was a huge problem at certain times and places.
